frustration over VIA 4in1 drivers

hey all! I am having a helluva time installing the VIA 4in1 drivers
for my system. It is an 850mhz Duron, and an MSI model# ms-6378 ver.
1.0 motherboard. I've had success with the 4.43 version before. The
system was installing anything and everything in pretty good fashion,
but when i just tried to install the 4.43 drivers, and subsequently
install a software program, the computer hung up. It hung up also
when trying other versions of the VIA drivers. I don't know why they
released so many of the damn things! Well I've tried 4.35, 4.43, and
4.51 so far, and for some reason i cannot install this software. I've
had it successfully install on another hard drive, but this one i have
currently in the system is a brand new 80gig Western Digital. Are
there any other drivers i should be installing that i don't know
about, or are the 4in1 drivers the only ones that should do the trick?
WHICH 4in1 drivers should i use? is it different with EVERY
motherboard, or just certain motherboards? Mine is the KLE133
chipset. I am getting a new system very soon, but in the meantime,
wanted to get more space so i got the new WD drive.

well, that one bit the dust. There are no BIOS upgrades for my
system, and the update didn't do much at all. I am still getting
lock-ups. I am wondering if there is a physical defect with this
motherboard. I don't know much about the windoze registry and how it
relates to the win.ini or system.ini files. There must be a file that
is not on my drive that should be, or a file that shouldn't be on
there, and it's causing problems. That's the only thing i could think
of.

thanks for the help. These problems may be a hint to get that new
system that i'm buying sooner than later, because this thing is so
bloody unstable.
